    I have been snapping away for almost 50 years so I must be old. Currently waiting for a 90D body as an upgrade from my 600D. This Covid19 is causing havoc for stock to get to WA, so patience is the key I guess.

    Hello and welcome to the forum Chris.

    This sort scene takes me back. Where are the corrugations on the road?

    I think we were lucky and it had just been graded!

    I don't visit here every day Chris so I've just noticed this while flicking through. A very warm welcome to you from one sangroper to another.
    I hope the 90D gets to you soon. The corrugations Gary mentioned are real enough - I know for a fact that they are bad enough to rattle the bonnet off a Landrover!

    We when were on the Gibb River Road, there was a Jeep that split into two because of the battering from the corrugations.

    Exactly Gary, they are unbelievably destructive.
